you may simple search google for dllexport. One resource is 

http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B132044&x=11&y=10

and see section /Using decorations/ in //

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/gnu-linker/win32.html

The problem it fixes is documented in
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg01101.html

BTW: This remember me to ask the binutils maintainer again if this
specific linker script could be a build into ld. but I'm not sure if
this will be accepted and it will need some time until an updated linker
will be ready.
